MTAWIL16 Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 about to contact them. lets see if they are legit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondofangle Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Actual posting sounds legit, but WTF Is this, some kind of basement discovery after an old-timer died of COVID or something? And even if it is, wouldn't you think that a serious seller would clean everything up and post some legit pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTAWIL16 Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 i think its a scam, seller account is only a couple months old, plus they have a bunch of factory post sample machine guns for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGT Fish Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Good luck. Their ammo value seems a bit inflated but it could still be a good deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooster2412 Posted March 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 From what I'm reading someone has already sent him a text and an email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondofangle Posted March 21, 2023 Report Share Posted March 21, 2023 wishful thinking...."found in a basement" LOL I'm going to start from the position of "scam" and move away from that if any evidence to the contrary is presented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy H Posted March 21, 2023 Report Share Posted March 21, 2023 I moved this post …. Since it’s more of a “ discussion “ than a sale post …. Especially since the seller did not post it here to begin with …… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron in Mohnton Pa Posted March 21, 2023 Report Share Posted March 21, 2023 Those twin .50 cal mounts came from Greece maybe 12-15 years ago..... I believe Gryphos (whom is no longer alive from what I understand?) brought them in... Aaron - Mohnton, Pa Sales@BeltFeds.Com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondofangle Posted March 22, 2023 Report Share Posted March 22, 2023 Doesn't seem like any evidence has come in to refute the "scam" hypothesis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sure feels like a scam. Guns are in one location far from where he posted them for sale. He has a bunch of transferables for sale but needs to find the paperwork. You are lucky to sell a crappy pistol on texas gun trader and he is trying to sell no law letter machine guns. only reason im messing with it is because its in my backyard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattnh Posted March 22, 2023 Report Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) I spoke the actual owner about them (who is not the person who posted the advertisement). I was told he verbally committed to a deal yesterday. The actual owner had a FFL & I spoke to him on that associated phone #. In our discussion, he said one thing that would make me investigate the items more given that he used to be a dealer/sot… if you are the buyer, feel free to PM me & I’ll let you know the issue. — Matt Edited March 22, 2023 by mattnh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told by the owner of the items that the person who posted the ad for the guns did so WITHOUT his knowledge explaining some of the confusion (he does want to sell the guns).... Anyhow, if I had to venture a guess, it is most likely NOT a scam based solely on the conversation. However, there could possibly be an issue with the guns given the info I was told on the phone. I don't have enough info one way of the other to 100% clarify the issue. I was told he already had a buyer lined-up & I figured I'd pass along my concern to whoever he had lined up the purchase if they are on STURM.
